30 Oct 2009
Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: GH abuse is a significant problem in many sports, and there is currently no robust test that allows detection of doping beyond a short window after administration. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to evaluate gene expression profiling in peripheral blood leukocytes in-vivo as a test for GH doping in humans.
